SKA Science Data Challenge 2: analysis and results

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Xin Chen, Frédéric Courbin, Jean-Luc Starck, Emma Elizabeth Tolley, Yi Zhang, Lei Zhang, Hua Zhang, Xiuwei Zhang, Libo Yu

The Square Kilometre Array Observatory (SKAO) will explore the radio sky to new depths in order to conduct transformational science. SKAO data products made available to astronomers will be correspondingly large and complex, requiring the application of ad ...

Moment approach of the multi-species non-linear Coulomb collision operator adapted to particle-in-cell codes

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Moahan Murugappan, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Claudio Gheller

In this article an approximated version of the multi-species, non-linear Coulomb collision operator is derived via the use of a truncated moment expansion of the distribution function to compute the Rosenbluth potentials. The evolution of the distribution ...

Gyrokinetic simulations on many- and multi-core architectures with the global electromagnetic Particle-In-Cell Code ORB5

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Claudio Gheller

Gyrokinetic codes in plasma physics need outstanding computational resources to solve increasingly complex problems, requiring the effective exploitation of cutting-edge HPC architectures. This paper focuses on the enabling of ORB5, a state-of-the-art, fir ...

Multiwavelength cross-correlation analysis of the simulated cosmic web

Claudio Gheller

We used magnetohydrodynamical cosmological simulations to investigate the cross-correlation between different observables (i.e. X-ray emission, Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) signal at 21 cm, HI temperature decrement, diffuse synchrotron emission, and Faraday Rota ...

Orb5: A global electromagnetic gyrokinetic code using the PIC approach in toroidal geometry

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Sébastien Jolliet, Alberto Bottino, Thibaut Vernay, Ben McMillan, Paolo Angelino, Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana

This paper presents the current state of the global gyrokinetic code Orb5 as an update of the previous reference (Jolliet et al., 2007). The Orb5 code solves the electromagnetic Vlasov–Maxwell system of equations using a PIC scheme and also includes collis ...

A survey of the thermal and non-thermal properties of cosmic filaments

Claudio Gheller

In this paper, we exploit a large suite of ENZO cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations adopting uniform mesh resolution, to investigate the properties of cosmic filaments under different baryonic physics and magnetogenesis scenarios. We exploit an ...

A radio ridge connecting two galaxy clusters in a filament of the cosmic web

Claudio Gheller

Galaxy clusters are the most massive gravitationally bound structures in the Universe. They grow by accreting smaller structures in a merging process that produces shocks and turbulence in the intracluster gas. We observed a ridge of radio emission connect ...

Detecting shocked intergalactic gas with X-ray and radio observations

Claudio Gheller

Detecting the thermal and non-thermal emission from the shocked cosmic gas surrounding large-scale structures represents a challenge for observations, as well as a unique window into the physics of the warm-hot intergalactic medium. In this work, we presen ...

The turbulent pressure support in galaxy clusters revisited

Claudio Gheller

Due to their late formation in cosmic history, clusters of galaxies are not fully in hydrostatic equilibrium and the gravitational pull of their mass at a given radius is expected not to be entirely balanced by the thermal gas pressure. Turbulence may supp ...

Prediction of the Inter-Node Communication Costs of a New Gyrokinetic Code with Toroidal Domain

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Emmanuel Lanti, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Claudio Gheller, Aaron Lewis Scheinberg

We consider the communication costs of gyrokinetic plasma physics simulations running at large scale. For this we apply virtual decompositions of the toroidal domain in three dimensions and additional domain cloning to existing simulations done with the OR ...
